morning Mccoy, at the head Of II cow
boys, all mounted, dashed into Lusk,
and commencing riding the streets in
warlike array. They were armed with
revolvers and Winchester files, and the
citizens were so completely taken by
surprise that they had no time for or
ganization or effective resistance, but
were obliged to get into their own
domiciles and business places, from
whence they dared not issue. Tele-
grams were sent out to various quarters
for aid which could not come. The
mob took possession Of n of the ga
looms, which it used as headquarters,
from whence they took relays in guard
ing the streets. This state ofthings was
maintained Tuesday, Tuesday night
Wednesday, Wednesday night and
Thursday.
There was no attempt at bloodshed OF
violence, other than a siege Of the town
which was completely at their mercy
The citizens appear to have accepted
the motto of discretion as the better
part of yalor, and did not make a move
toward a conflict, which had it been lily
planned, might have resulted in the
burning Of the town and the massacre
of the inhabitants. The end OF The
t.ouble came last night as the following

Legitimate Mining Begun.

We observe by the Comstock news
papers-ths Virginia Chronicle and the
Enterprise-that work either has al
ready resumed, or soon will be, in the
Bullion, Exchequer, Imperial, Silver
Hill, Alpha, st. Louis, Baltimore. Utah,
Occidental and other mines which have
Jain idle for years. This is the surest
sign that the boom" which has struck
the Comstock has come to stay for,
while there is nothing remarkable in
such mines as the Ophir, the Con. Cal,
and Virginia, Savage, Hale d Norcross,
ect., which contain bodies of paying ore
being worked, it is evident that when
non-productive mines are worked the
confidence of investors must have re-
turned. The fact is, that one-fourth OF
the treasure Of the Comstoek has not
yet seen the light of day. There are
miles upon miles Of drifts, in the upper
levels. which contain millions upon
millions of tons Of ore, which have been
neglected because Comstock mining
heretofore has been a search for bon
anzas. From this time on, it is evident
that the era of legitimate mining has
dawned there, and with the new system
Of concentration recently adopted the
bodies of low-grade ore will pay good
dividends, while the Comstock region
will soon be more prosperous han ever.

ish last evening.

calculated Denny, as he raised his eyes
and lowered his hat, and swung his
agile jaw to the left. 81 understand

lature with a pine land bill"
Yes sir! Yes sir" shouted the en-.
thusiatic Standish, transforming his
arms into q buzz saw and assuming IN
aggressive attitude. He then ex plained
his bill to Denny, who listed patiently
occasionally whisking his boo-tailed
goatee and glancing up from beneath
his hat. When Standish had completed
his description Denny said:
This is an extreme measure, isn't it?'
Yes, sir yes, sir"
"Wel!, there's my hand, and you can
bet ri stay with you till the devil is
compelled to wear skates at home. I'm
an extreme man, myself. I'm an antag-
o%nizer, and III support your bill. I've
got a bill Of my own to change ground

4th of July, and we'll buck the game to-
